Time.

Time is weird. It keeps on going, a clock keeps on ticking and life always carries on. The bad things happen, the good, the beautiful and the raw. Life is like a movie that keeps on playing- one you cannot press pause on or stop by a button, it just plays on (even the scarier seens). This may sound kind of depressing, but it is actually pretty beautiful to think; God lets time tick- he knows the beginning and the end, the then and the now and yet still does not pressure or force us to his time table or even ways. It is hard for the brain to fathom such a concept that he is all knowing and powerful.

Whether today will go as planned or tomorrow something will happen you did not expect, whether it is good or bad he already knew it would and has a plan in place. Some days have been harder for me lately I am not going to lie, but I cannot help but think to myself he knows what will happen: the time table, the plan- his plan. Drake says it best, its: Gods plan. Everyday you wake up- you are meant too. Every time a heartbreak happens- he has a repair plan in store. It is so easy to look at all of the bad and terrible times, but what about looking at time itself. Time will always go on- so will you, so will I, still here, time will tick.

I think to myself sometimes I cannot control my life- I want too, I really, really want too, but circumstances are uncontrollable at times. I think the whole point of serenity is to realize you cant control it all, you have got too roll with the punches no matter how large and painful they throw at you- circumstances, situations, mis-haves. This is what happens, day to day, you break a glass, you lose your wallet, you hear bad news from a friend, you lose someone close. This is not fun stuff, but there is time to keep moving, there is time for healing, there is time for receiving hope, there is time. One moment at a time, one day at a time- breathe. The one who loves you is in control, the one who knows you, sees your struggles, the one who suffered, suffers with you, alongside you the whole way through.

Try and trust the time clock of your life, try to trust that TIME IS ON YOUR SIDE. You are allowed to take time for yourself, time will align up with you on your journey whatever it may look like. Your journey matters, everyone's journey does and everyone's will not all look the same. We are all, beautifully different! Remember that God is love and nothing can EVER change this. His love is wild, unpredictable and precious all at once, a gift, wrapped up in a beautiful bow, sealed and delivered to you, perfectly. Love is on your side- so is time. I hope that one day all the struggles and pains become a memory and time heals you back without any pressures, or other peoples voices telling you to do this or do that, but by giving it all up and letting it all go- patience: you are allowed to give it time. You are very, very loved.
